Stake STRK with Atlas Keep Starknet
producing blocks
Atlas runs a Starknet validator on our own infrastructure. You keep the keys. We run the node. You earn protocol rewards in STRK.
No protocol minimum for delegators. Use 5,000 STRK and stay 30 days only if you want the Starkpunk bonus.
A thank you for qualifying early delegators.
What it
set out to do
When we launched the Starknet validator, we wanted early delegators, not a PFP circus.
Starkpunks was the first 10,000 piece NFT collection on Starknet in 2022. It was a free mint with CryptoPunks style portraits, and demand tested early mainnet capacity. We bought a small set to thank the first 20 wallets that delegated at least 5,000 STRK to Atlas and stayed for 30 days.
Our bet was that a piece of early Starknet culture would give people a reason to try delegation once. The job of this page was always STRK staking, not NFT floor price.
From the Atlas collection. Atlas selects the token ID for each qualifying wallet.
What happened
The mint was free. It wasn’t a paid rug. Like many 2022 L2 PFP collections, trading volume faded. The later $PUNK token didn’t become a reason to hold or stake, and the project went quiet.
Delegation was the point
The staking promotion did its job for wallets that delegated. Protocol rewards came from Starknet staking, never from the JPEG.
Messages asking you to “drop your address for $PUNK” aren’t from Atlas. Don’t connect your wallet through an unsolicited airdrop link.
What it is now
Starkpunks is a piece of Starknet history. If your wallet is among the first 20 to qualify, you’ll receive one from our collection. Treat it as a receipt for helping grow the validator set in Starknet’s early proof of stake period. It has no promised utility or price.
The return driver
is STRK staking
- Delegate STRK with no protocol minimum. Already holding supported wrapped BTC on Starknet? Explore BTC staking on Endur ↗
- Protocol rewards are paid in STRK. Rates vary and rewards aren’t guaranteed.
- Unstaking STRK currently involves a seven day protocol lockup. Check the current terms before confirming.
- You can leave after the 30 day promo window, subject to the protocol lockup. We’d rather you stay because the node stays up.

One Starkpunk per wallet. Atlas selects the token ID. The NFT has no promised utility or price. Staking carries protocol, validator, smart contract, and market risks. This isn’t financial advice. Fake airdrop links aren’t Atlas.
